I saw it back when the thing first went viral.

The whole thing was despicable, and it definitely was sexual battery.

I'm glad a judge decided this was serious - no one gets to do that to another person.

I'm a huge sports fan, and a college football fan, for sure. People need to fucking correct themselves and stop acting like assholes, at least on that level of advanced asshole.

Maybe this will make people think twice.
